Time to let the majority rule (meaning who wins the most seats not which 3 parties can combine and have the most seats)...which is what these elections are all about and why a coalition is NOT part of the answer since both Dion and Ignatieff now have said they want no part of it.

Thats just silly though; a coalition is majority rule in this case (assuming there is no change in seats, or no majority). At some point you have to recognize that people are divided and as a government they should work within that boundary.
A coalition doesn't have to be so negative. Why don't the Conservatives pursue a coalition with the NDP if the seats allow? Harper can still be PM and there is just some give and take. Its not my first choice, but hard to argue with.
